Task of the present invention solves with the feature of independent patent claim according to the present invention.Other is preferred, design according to the present invention is obtained by dependent patent claim.
The prior art enumerated of beginning is based on following hypothesis: transducer is the fixing part of press-connection machine preferably, the standing electrical interface to electrical power feeding mechanism and on the control electronic installation of evaluating regularly and can not be integrated in conversion in the maneuvering motion mechanism of described press-connection machine, with transducer.Press-connection machine to different crimping processes, for example for different tool geometries or workpiece geometries may fit in here at transducer " downstream " first, the stream of the power between transducer and workpiece carries out.
The basic thought of having set up from this is different, and the present invention proposes the use for the conversion adapter of press-connection machine for the first time, and this conversion adapter is formed with anvil block and drift.The described anvil block of described conversion adapter and drift respectively have a mould acceptance division, on described mould acceptance division, can keep different mold halves.The different mold halves keeping on the mould acceptance division of anvil block and drift is alternatively such as can be different at aspects such as the number of nest, mold profile, height.Therefore, described conversion adapter can be used multi-functionally, and its mode is can realize different crimping processes by means of the conversion adapter that has combined different mold halves.
In addition, anvil block and drift respectively have a coupling regime, and via described coupling regime, described anvil block and drift (and then described conversion adapter) can be coupled in the mode that can convert with described press-connection machine.For example, different coupling regimes can be realized the coupling of conversion adapter and the different press-connection machine of identical or different manufacturer.Thus, the use of different conversion adapters can realize the widening of range of application of a press-connection machine.Same feasible is, via described coupling regime, different conversion adapters can be coupled with same press-connection machine in conversion, these press-connection machines can be for example aspect size, transducer, mould acceptance division different or or even identical, wherein, can carry out in this case the replacing relevant to wearing and tearing.
According to the present invention, a transducer is integrated in described conversion adapter, via described transducer, can detect crimp force or the power relevant to this crimp force, crimp stroke etc.This design of the present invention has been avoided those skilled in the art's technology prejudice thus, that is, transducer must be the fixing machine part of described press-connection machine.Exactly, the present invention tolerance: can be equipped with respectively a transducer from the different conversion adapter of same press-connection machine or different press-connection machine coupling.According to the present invention, can realize: in the situation that a transducer damages, described press-connection machine itself does not become and cannot use, this transducer that requires damage under a stable condition is expended and is removed and pack new transducer into by described press-connection machine.Exactly can be according to the present invention in simple mode, remove another conversion adapter with normally functioning transducer with the conversion adapter of the transducer damaging and use.
Also feasible: the different conversion adapter for a press-connection machine is equipped with the transducer with different measuring ranges.If use the transducer of a unique machine side according to prior art, this transducer designs according to the crimp force for whole possible crimping process of maximum so.In the situation that the restricted resolution of transducer and processes sensor signal, this is especially for limiting measurement accuracy in following situation, and in these cases, crimp force is only the sub-fraction (Bruchteil) of mentioned maximum crimp force.According to the present invention, can use different transducers for different application targets, by means of these transducers, then the different maximum crimp force of expection can be detected with resolution high, through optimizing.According to the present invention, can realize in addition: described transducer is arranged relatively near described mold halves in described conversion adapter.Because the large transmission stroke between mold halves and transducer reduces measurement accuracy and adds the impact of serious mistake, so utilize, according to conversion adapter of the present invention and integrated transducer, can carry out the improvement of measurement accuracy.
In category of the present invention, there is for integrated sensor the diversified possibility to described conversion adapter.In order only to quote an example, transducer can be integrated in described anvil block or described drift.Same feasible, described transducer not only with described anvil block and also with described drift acting in conjunction, wherein, described transducer can be in this case towards the action direction measurement that is parallel to described crimping campaign.Also feasible in the case, described anvil block or described drift are formed with two anvil features or two punch member, and described transducer is linked in power stream between them.Same feasible, described anvil block or described drift have a breach, and described transducer is arranged in described breach.Being deformed in of described anvil block or drift is the loading with power that causes the transducer being arranged in described breach.In this case, the described anvil block of described support or the strain region of described drift are in parallel via transducer mechanical type.Also be feasiblely, only a supporting surface in two of transducer supporting surfaces is supported on described conversion adapter, and another supporting surface of described transducer be can contact free and the corresponding supporting surface interaction of the assembling in described press-connection machine and described press-connection machine with described conversion adapter.In this case, described coupling regime or described mould acceptance division also can be formed with the supporting surface of described transducer.But preferably two of described transducer supporting surfaces are integrated in described conversion adapter, thereby make these supporting surfaces can not contact free and needn't interact with the corresponding supporting surface of described press-connection machine.
For an advantageous modification of the present invention, described conversion adapter is equipped with a protection cladding system.This protection cladding system can be realized at least part of covering of the parts that move relative to each other during described crimping process of described conversion adapter.Also feasible, when described conversion adapter is not connected with described press-connection machine and/or is stored or transports, described protection cladding system is protected described anvil block, described drift, described mold halves and other possible parts to exempt from and is damaged or pollute.
Described protection cladding system can have arbitrary shape with size and be made by any materials.In preferred design, described protection cladding system forms with transparent material, for example polymethyl methacrylate at least partly.This design is for example advantageous, if in order workpiece to be inserted in described press-connection machine and described conversion adapter or to wish to see the inside of described conversion adapter in order to change mold halves.In order only to quote a unrestriced example, can also carry out described crimping process by user or by the optical monitoring of an optical sensor arrangement by described transparent protection cladding system.
In other design of the present invention, in described conversion adapter, described anvil block and the anti-lost lost territory of described drift keep mutually, and wherein, holding device does not preferably hinder anvil block and the drift relative freedom in crimping direction.But equally also feasible: under the state not packing into of described conversion adapter, carry out the obstruction of the phase contraposition state of described anvil block and described drift, and the assembling on described press-connection machine and being eliminated with described conversion adapter of this obstruction.
Feasible, on described conversion adapter via other element lead described anvil block and described adapter.In preferred design, the present invention proposes: described anvil block and described adapter directly lead relative to each other.For this class, directly lead and have diversified possibility.When described guiding is carried out via (at least) guiding pin, provide the especially simply structure of described guiding, described guiding pin can be carried by described anvil block or described drift.Described guide finger be bolted at be can be at other parts, be that a guiding of drift or anvil block leads in breach.
Also feasible, exist two guiding pins, via these two guiding pins also hinder anvil block with respect to drift the rotational freedom around crimping axis.Preferably, these two guiding pins are arranged in the both sides of described mould acceptance division, thus, can obtain compact layout on the one hand and can obtain on the other hand rigidity guiding.Feasible, described guiding works between anvil block and drift chronically by a guiding pin or described two guiding pins.Same feasible, at least one guiding only works by a sub-crimp stroke.This for described guider with two guiding pins structure mean, described two guiding pins can there is different length.Then shorter guiding pin only interacts for a sub-crimp stroke and the guiding breach configuring.For example, described sub-crimp stroke can be carried out when described crimping process finishes, and in order to open drift and anvil block, shorter guiding pin is arranged at interval with lead breach and then described drift or anvil block.This is for example advantageous, if described shorter guiding pin can not hinder in the situation that opening mold halves, does not see described workpiece, described workpiece penetrating between a plurality of mold halves

or see the words of described mold halves.
Described transducer in principle can be being arranged in described conversion adapter on seat arbitrarily, in especially described anvil block or in described drift.In preferred design of the present invention, propose: described transducer is medially arranged with respect to described mould acceptance division along crimping axis direction projection in the situation that.With which, can for example obtain the symmetrical loading of described transducer.In addition, described transducer can be arranged in power stream possibly, thereby makes to cause the high sensitiveness of described transducer.Under a stable condition, can pass through mentioned design and also avoid described transducer only with crimp force or corresponding direct stress (Normalspannung), to be loaded, and by the direct stress to change on described or even load with the moment of a significant quantity.
Feasible, described mould acceptance division is only configured to receive the mold halves only with a nest, and this especially shows in the desired horizontal expansion size of mould acceptance division.But in preferred design, described mould acceptance division is configured to receive a mold halves with a plurality of nests that are arranged side by side.Can there is with same conversion adapter and same mold halves the processing of the different workpieces of different compression profiles and/or cross section thus.
In preferred design, there is at least one port that can unclamp on described conversion adapter and/or the plug that at least one can unclamp.Described interface or described plug are used for, and give described transducer supplied with electric power and/or the output signal of described transducer is passed to a control unit of evaluating.If carry out the assembling of a conversion adapter and a press-connection machine, so can carry out the simple electric coupling between conversion adapter and press-connection machine or other installation elements via described plug or described port so.Conversion adapter with respect to the replacing of another conversion adapter then (outside mechanical assembling and dismounting) require the replacing of described interface or plug.
Feasible is, described conversion adapter passes to the control unit arranged apart with described conversion adapter by the output signal of described transducer via above-mentioned port or a plug, this control unit be for example the fixing part of press-connection machine and here under a stable condition also for other object.The control unit of still processing the described output signal of described transducer in preferred design is integrated in described conversion adapter.The output signal of processing with which then can be in order further to process the control unit that is delivered to an outside via a port or a plug.
The possibility of the processing in the control unit of the described output signal of described transducer in being integrated into described conversion adapter is diversified.Should not limit the present invention in this example Shangdi , factory or according to paying and can carry out the correction of described conversion adapter.Corresponding correction coefficient or calibration curve then can the control unit in being integrated into conversion adapter in (and in next possible memory cell of a stable condition) form (modelliert) or store.If then conversion adapter operation, described output signal that so can be by described transducer produces an output signal by the processing of this integrated control unit, has considered described correction coefficient in this output signal.This causes as follows: different conversion adapters has produced following through adaptive output signal, and these are cleared up by manufacturing tolerance and the correction coefficient of mentioning through adaptive output signal.
Another design of the present invention relates to the group of the conversion adapter of the type of previously explaining.In the case, the conversion adapter in the group of conversion adapter can be distinguished by their coupling regime, their transducer, their mould acceptance division and/or plug or port.This class group of conversion adapter can be provided by manufacturer, thereby makes client can in this group, select conversion adapter suitable for him.Also feasible, client purchases one group of conversion adapter, and these conversion adapters are identified for different application targets, are particularly useful for the operation with different mold halves, transducer, workpiece and/or toolroom machine.
In other design of the present invention, in described group of conversion adapter, be provided with unified port or the conversion adapter of plug.By described unified port or plug, then the corresponding corresponding ports of different conversion adapters and press-connection machine or the coupling of corresponding plug be can carry out, and other electrical connection work or adaptive work must do not carried out.
In special design of the present invention, the different conversion adapter of described group has the transducer with different measuring ranges.With which, described conversion adapter can be selected for especially with the different application target of different maximum crimp forces.
Another solution of the present invention is based on of task provides by the press-connection machine of a plurality of conversion adapters with previous explained form or one group of conversion adapter.
For special press-connection machine, be provided with a control unit, this control unit is equipped with control logic.By means of this control logic, by the output signal of transducer, in the situation that considering correction coefficient or calibration curve, know that crimp force and/or crimp force move towards.In the case described correction coefficient or a calibration curve can be set in factory.Same feasible, in the bearing calibration aspect client, know correction coefficient or calibration curve, for example in the situation that using crimping simulator, as described according to EP0 902 509A1 in this crimping simulator.
In design that replace or accumulation, can for different conversion adapters, different mould and/or different workpiece, apply different correction coefficient or calibration curve by means of control logic, so as then by the output signal of the transducer of conversion adapter in the situation that consider that corresponding correction coefficient knows that crimp force and/or crimp force move towards.For example can come relevant correction coefficient given in advance or calibration curve by user, this can by direct input one correction coefficient or a calibration curve carries out or undertaken by the type of input conversion adapter or the type of the mold halves used, then by a database or a characteristic curve, knows configured correction coefficient or calibration curve thus.Same feasible be that the type of conversion adapter is by reading in corresponding mark, by handling the sensor of described press-connection machine, automatically detect, this transducer detects shape or the optical markings of conversion adapter, wherein, then according to the type of knowing of described transducer, apply configured correction coefficient or calibration curve.
For following situation, that is, the mould with a plurality of nests is used in conversion adapter and in press-connection machine, and the sensitiveness of transducer and then correction coefficient or calibration curve can be relevant for crimping process to which nest under a stable condition.In preferred design of the present invention, described control logic is suitably constructed, to apply different correction coefficient or calibration curve for the different nest of mould, utilize them then by the output signal of transducer, in the situation that considering correction coefficient or calibration curve, to know that crimp force and/or crimp force move towards.Here also the nest using respectively of mould manually can be inputted or detected automatically on described press-connection machine.
